In Episode 35 of Beyond Nrml w/ Mya Lamis, we’re having a real conversation about what actually kills dreams.

We were told to “dream big” as kids… but once we turn 18, we’re handed bills, responsibilities, and survival mode. So what happens to the vision? The passion? The thing we once believed in?

✨ In this episode, we discuss:

• Why adulthood often pushes us into survival instead of purpose

• The Top 5 Dream Killers:

  1. Bills & Survival Mode

  2. Fear of Failure

  5. Mental Health Struggles

• Why comparison is stealing creativity

• How society conditions us to stop dreaming

• Why it’s NOT too late to start again

• The importance of surrounding yourself with vision — not opinions

• Taking small strides toward big dreams

• Giving yourself permission to live

💭 “Dreams don’t die — they get buried under fear, bills, and other people’s expectations.”

It’s time to revive the dream.
